Collection: ALEX CERAMICS - Handcrafted stoneware ceramics made by Alex Shaffer in Roberts Creek, BC.

Handcrafted Stoneware from the Sunshine Coast

Welcome to Alex Ceramics—where coastal beauty meets functional art. Each piece is wheel-thrown and hand-finished by Alex Shaffer in Roberts Creek, BC, using locally sourced clay from our own land at Shaffer Farms.

The Story Behind the Clay

Nestled on the Sunshine Coast, our studio is surrounded by the natural textures and rhythms that inspire every piece. From the weathered driftwood on the shore to the ancient cedars overhead, the landscape shapes our work. We dig our clay from the earth beneath our feet, fire it in our kilns, and finish each piece by hand—honoring the slow craft tradition and the beauty of imperfection.
